• 2D > Pogo conversions use Elphelt for reference.
• Damage values listed for combos with interchangeable combo parts assume the highest damage variation unless otherwise stated.

Ground Combos

2P Starters

One of Faust's low hitconfirm starters along with 2K. For combos with 2D, if there's any spacing concerns remove the 5H.

2P starter

Combo	Position	Damage	Works on:	Difficulty	Notes
2P > 2S > 2H > 236S~(9)~H	Any	92	All	[1] Very Easy	Standard BnB. Provides corner carry and knockdown; some female characters may tech before hitting the ground (i.e. Jam, Elphelt) if you do not include the hop(9) input. 236S~H won't connect if your back is to the corner as you won't make the juggle in time.
2P > 2S > 5H(1-3) > 236S~(9)~H	Any	90	All	[1] Very Easy	Variation on standard BnB using 5H instead of 2H. Provides corner carry and knockdown; some female characters may tech before hitting the ground (i.e. Jam, Elphelt) if you do not include the hop(9) input. 236S~H won't connect if your back is to the corner as you won't make the juggle in time.
2P > 2S > 5H(1-3) > 2D > (Air Combo)	Any	71*	All*	[1] Very Easy	Alternative to first BnB. If your back is to the corner or you're worried about the character teching GMW follow up, this offers a guaranteed knockdown for less damage. Can cancel 2D into item toss or jump cancel for followup pressure. Air combo follow up applies to a subset of characters, see 2D confirm section.
2P > 2S > 5H(1-3) > 2D > 236S~(9)~H	Any	102	Female characters (excluding Kum)	[1] Very Easy	Alternative to above BnB that only works on female characters. Nets you more damage than usual. Adding the the hop can keep characters from teching out. Damage depends on number of hits you get from 5H.
